The African Food Blog has been set up as a watering hole for lovers of African food to come together and share their secret (and not so secret) recipes, cooking techniques, tips and tricks and even the history of the foods from this amazing continent.

Who can contribute?

Anyone!

How can I contribute?

*For now, all recipes, suggestions, tips, tricks and articles can be emailed to come(dot)chop (at)yahoo(dot)com.

Please remember to include your weblog link (if you have one) or your name (or nickname if you prefer) in your email. This is simply so I know who to credit the contribution to when I post it on The African Food Blog. Your information will NEVER be passed on or sold to a third party.

Once you have mailed in your contribution, please allow about 24 hours before it appears on The African Food Blog.

What information do I have to include in my recipe?

When submitting a recipe, try and include as much information as possible such as –

weight/measurements of ingredientsPreparation and cooking timeServing suggestionsNumber of portions that the recipe will make*Alternative ingredient suggestionsThe part of Africa your recipe comes from and if you can, why not give a little background history of your recipe as well

What if the ingredients are not readily available?

*Ingredients may not always be readily available especially to those living outside of the Continent so wherever you can, please suggest substitutes for hard to get ingredients.

How many recipes can I submit?

As many as you like and as often as you like.

What else can I contribute?

Although it is now relatively easy for Africans who live outside of the continent to get their hands on the ingredients used in the preparation of the dishes, this isn’t always the case. So if you know of any markets or grocery stores around where you live or any online ethnic shops where authentic African ingredients can be purchased please let us know!

Hello. Prompt how to get acquainted with the girl it to me to like. But does not know about it I have read through one history Each of you has your personal story; it is your history. Keeping a diary or writing your feelings in a special notebook is a wonderful way to learn how to think and write about who you are -- to develop your own identity and voice.

People of all ages are able to do this. Your own history is special because of your circumstances: your cultural, racial, religious or ethnic background. Your story is also part of human history, a part of the story of the dignity and worth of all human beings. By putting opinions and thoughts into words, you, too, can give voice to your inner self and strivings.

A long entry by Anne Frank on April 5, 1944, written after more than a year and a half of hiding from the Nazis, describes the range of emotions 14-year-old Anne is experiencing:

". . . but the moment I was alone I knew I was going to cry my eyes out. I slid to the floor in my nightgown and began by saying my prayers, very fervently. Then I drew my knees to my chest, lay my head on my arms and cried, all huddled up on the bare floor. A loud sob brought me back down to earth, and I choked back my tears, since I didn't want anyone next door to hear me . . .

"And now it's really over. I finally realized that I must do my school work to keep from being ignorant, to get on in life, to become a journalist, because that's what I want! I know I can write. A few of my stories are good, my descriptions of the Secret Annex are humorous, much of my diary is vivid and alive, but . . . it remains to be seen whether I really have talent . . .

"When I write I can shake off all my cares. My sorrow disappears, my spirits are revived! But, and that's a big question, will I ever be able to write something great, will I ever become a journalist or a writer? I hope so, oh, I hope so very much, because writing allows me to record everything, all my thoughts, ideals and fantasies.

"I haven't worked on Cady's Life for ages. In my mind I've worked out exactly what happens next, but the story doesn't seem to be coming along very well. I might never finish it, and it'll wind up in the wastepaper basket or the stove. That's a horrible thought, but then I say to myself, "At the age of 14 and with so little experience, you can't write about philosophy.' So onward and upward, with renewed spirits. It'll all work out, because I'm determined to write! Yours, Anne M. Frank

Higher Consciousness The second question that will be dealt with is the question of how knowledge is acquired. This area of epistemology covers what is called "the regress problem", issues concerning epistemic distinctions such as that between experience and apriority as means of creating knowledge and that between analysis and synthesis as means of proof, and debates such as the one between empiricists and rationalists.

Dr. Richard Alpert is a contemporary spiritual teacher who wrote the 1971 bestseller Be Here Now. He is well-known for his association with Timothy Leary at Harvard University in the early 1960s, both having been dismissed from their professorships for experiments on the effects of psychedelic drugs on human subjects. He is also known for his travels to India and his association with the Hindu guru, Neem Karoli Baba.

I considered myself as the professional in this theme, and did not think that I can find in the Internet something new. But having come on your site, I have understood, that I know nothing and it is necessary for me to study and study as much as possible. - www.blogger.com t http://mosquitoringtone1.4x2.net mosquito ringtone http://freenokiaringtone1.4x2.net free nokia ringtone http://freeverizonringtone1.4x2.net free verizon ringtone http://mp3ringtone1.4x2.net mp3 ringtone http://nokiaringtone1.4x2.net nokia ringtone http://freemotorolaringtone1.4x2.net free motorola ringtone http://freemp3ringtone1.4x2.net free mp3 ringtone http://samsungringtone1.4x2.net samsung ringtone http://freepolyphonicringtone1.4x2.net free polyphonic ringtone http://britneyspearsringtone1.4x2.net britney spears ringtone
